I have decided to take the Project365 Challenge. Starting on January 1, 2010, I am going to take one photo per day for the entire year. I am not setting any rules as to what the photo should be or should look like. It just has to be a piece of my life, or an idea that I have, from that day. I will also add a brief decription of my thought process and why that photo is my photo for the day. If you choose to read/view my blog, you will get to know a little bit about me.

Tomato (153 of 365)

So, what happens to a tomato when you add some water and strategically placed light? Well, it's still a tomato, but it looks much cooler that it did sitting on the kitchen shelf.

No babies or canoes available tonight, so I decided to fire up the old strobes and work with some artificial light. I saw this tomato sitting on the shelf and I really liked the look of the stem, so I figured I would see what I could do with it.

Setup: SB-600 through a 24"x24" softbox camera right, a reflector camera left. SB-600 with three green gels on the floor aimed at a crumpled piece of tinfoil about 6 feet behind the tomato. The tomato is sitting on a piece of glass that is elevated a few feet off the ground. The water is from my orchid mister.
